Since its Merdeka I decided to have a post on Malaysian food. Now, tell me... Who cannot resist Malaysian Food? As soon as you see a plate of Nasi Lemak or Roti Canai or Asam Laksa, do you feel the urge to dig in? DO you NEED to?

Because I for one, NEED to. I cannot (honestly) resist good Malaysian food.

If anyone comes to Malaysia, its a 'custom' to have a taste of Malay dishes, - nasi lemak, laksa, satay, rendang, sambal, mee jawa, ikan bakar - Indian and Mamak dishes, - a plate of mamak rice, mamak mee goreng, maggi goreng, nasi briyani, the indian curries, mamak curries, tandoori chicken, mee rebus, murtabak, roti canai, roti telur/ roti bawang - Chinese dishes - Hainan chicken rice, chili crab, steamed pomfret (or whatever fish you desire), hot and spicy kerapu/grouper/garoupa fish, sweet and sour pork, bak kut teh, yong tau foo, char kway teow, hokkien mee, wanton mee, curry mee, chee chong fun, lor bak, o'chien, popiah, LOK LOK!, ais kacang/ ABC - Nyonya dishes - Rojak, asam laksa, laksa lemak, mee siam, bubur cha-cha, cendol. Hmm, who can forget Curry Puffs, Pineapple Tarts, etc etc.

My, oh my. There REALLY is A LOT of dishes. Just so you guys know, there are actually LOADS more dishes. This are just a few examples.

I'm drooling right now. So much for losing weight. hahahahaahahaha.

Food is good. Malaysian food is the best. =D

If people come to Malaysia and don't eat these foods- its like going to Japan and not eating sushi or sashimi or udon. Its like showering without water (just not right). So yeaaaa... I promote Malaysia for its food. Mainly for that and the KL Tower and Petronas Twin Towers. And also the lovely beaches. AND also because its my homeland.

Happy 50th Merdeka!!!
